Release Control Kodi with your Google Home
#68
Hello.  Just got myself Google Home and this is great!
I'm trying to add this to my settings/configurations but having issues.

I followed instructions from beginning to end.  I added the IFTTT 's exactly as OmerTu stated.  So far I have created 2 applets Play a movie in Kodi and Pause.

While a movie is playing, I say "hey google, pause" , Google Home will say, "nothing is playing."
When I say, "hey google, play xxx", Google Home will say, "playing xxx" but nothing plays.
Or when if I say "hey google, play xxx on Kodi", Google Home will say, "sorry, I can't play from Kodi yet."

I troubleshooted per OmerTu's instruction and was able to pause and un pause a movie when I enter my local IP and external IP.
  1. While a video is being played in Kodi, try pausing it by entering this in your browser:
Quote:http://YOUR_INTERNAL_KODI_IP:PORT/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"Player.playpause","params":{"playerid":1}}
If you get prompt to enter username and password choose the ones you set in Kodi (step A above). If that doesn't work, you probably have a problem with your kodi setup.
  1. If that works, try pausing a video using your external IP:
Quote:http://YOUR_EXTERNAL_IP:PORT/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"Player.playpause","params":{"playerid":1}}

Both steps work.
The movie is stored locally on my usb drive and attached to my shield.  

Any help would be appreciated.  Again, watching all the youtube clips on this integration, looks great!  Can't wait to get mine set up.

Thanks.
